Confession: I haven't read his complete works! I have read most of the fiction however, I discovered this by finishing Rodney Stone and a couple short stories. I realized that I read them before. So I've read as much as I care to, not even approaching his voluminous non-fiction works.
I must say I don't like any of his fiction nearly as well as his Sherlock Holmes canon. He can roll in his grave all he likes! The only stories that I enjoyed nearly as well are his short stories of Brigadier Gerard of the Napoleonic wars.

Have read all of Doyle's Sherlock Holmes and probably others as well, just never bothered to put them in to amazon or goodreads, so dates wrong. Some KU some paperback some hardback some collections.

First read these books as a child and have been rereading ever since. The characters are irresistible and now there are no new stories I look for new pastiche to get my fix. Everybody should read these.

Have read and re-read these stories multiple times. I enjoy them thoroughly each time. I love the characters, the plots and everything about these stories

This book was on my reading list for many many years. But, this happens to be my first book on Kindle. So, I enjoyed both-reading the books and reading on Kindle. Following books have given immense satisfaction while reading the voluminous volume.
1 A Study in Scarlet.
2 The Sign of The Four.
3. The Adventures of Sherlock Homes
4. The Memoir of Sherlock Homes.
5. The Hounds of Baskervilles.
That leaves reading the remaining book: The Return of
Sherlock Homes.
The last book:The Case Book of Sherlock Homes, I completed today. It has 12 very interesting cases. Very enjoyable.

As far as I can remember, I have never enjoyed English literature more than I enjoyed the works of A. C. Doyle. That sums it all up.

Conan Doyle is so much more than just Holmes, even though I grew up reading the detective stories and came later to the rest.

Perfect, charming, and, as Holmes would say, instructive. I'm very sad that there's no more Sherlock Holmes to read.

The mysteries that sent the World into a tizzy and to this day, captivate many. Conan Doyle at his best was a fantastic writer. Can anything be better than A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, The Hound of the Baskervilles, or The Speckled Band? A wonderful book.
